Subreddit rules check

Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · No explicit self-promo rule is visible; avoid advertising multiplayer cheats, piracy, or bypassing anti‑cheat—community favors legal single‑player modding and technical detail.
Links
The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, discussion, question
Headline: short, direct, often starts with “I” for projects (I made/I’m building) or a clear question. Write in first person for project posts; include platforms, progress status, demo media, and installation/compatibility notes. Typical length: 150–400 words with screenshots/videos and a short changelog. Tone: informal but technical; concrete dev details and disclaimers (single‑player/anti‑cheat) get upvotes; vague/low‑effort posts or anything resembling piracy/cheats get ignored or removed.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/modding's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
